=========================================

How to use 'makefile':
        make all    : this will compile the Fotag
        make run    : this will compile and run the Fotag
        make clean  : this will clean all .class files.


=========================================

   after that, it would work properly.)

COMMENTS for grader.

I have noticed, this program needs some times when loading images, showing display according to your rate choice.
Please wait for a bit to show you the result.  Thank you.

Hope you enjoy my photo viewer application, Fotag!
Thanks for playing!
